Subject[PATCH V3] mm/vmstat: Add events for THP migration without split
Date
Add following new vmstat events which will help in validating THP migration
without split. Statistics reported through these new VM events will help in
performance debugging.

1. THP_MIGRATION_SUCCESS
2. THP_MIGRATION_FAILURE
3. THP_MIGRATION_SPLIT

In addition, these new events also update normal page migration statistics
appropriately via PGMIGRATE_SUCCESS and PGMIGRATE_FAILURE. While here, this
updates current trace event 'mm_migrate_pages' to accommodate now available
THP statistics.

Changes in V3:

- Formatted new events documentation with 'fmt' tool per Matthew
- Made events universally available i.e dropped ARCH_ENABLE_THP_MIGRATION
- Added THP_MIGRATION_SPLIT
- Updated trace_mm_migrate_pages() with THP events
- Made THP events update normal page migration events as well

Changes in V2: (https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/11586893/)

- Dropped PMD reference both from code and commit message per Matthew
- Added documentation and updated the commit message per Daniel

Changes in V1: (https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/11564497/)

- Changed function name as thp_pmd_migration_success() per John
- Folded in a fix (https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/11563009/) from Hugh

Changes in RFC V2: (https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/11554861/)

- Decopupled and renamed VM events from their implementation per Zi and John
- Added THP_PMD_MIGRATION_FAILURE VM event upon allocation failure and split

Changes in RFC V1: (https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/11542055/)

+Quantifying Migration
+=====================
+Following events can be used to quantify page migration.
+
+1. PGMIGRATE_SUCCESS /* Normal page migration success */
+2. PGMIGRATE_FAIL /* Normal page migration failure */
+3. THP_MIGRATION_SUCCESS /* Transparent huge page migration success */
+4. THP_MIGRATION_FAILURE /* Transparent huge page migration failure */
+5. THP_MIGRATION_SPLIT /* Transparent huge page got split, retried */
+
+THP_MIGRATION_SUCCESS is when THP is migrated successfully without getting
+split into it's subpages. THP_MIGRATION_FAILURE is when THP could neither
+be migrated nor be split. THP_MIGRATION_SPLIT is when THP could not
+just be migrated as is but instead get split into it's subpages and later
+retried as normal pages. THP events would also update normal page migration
+statistics PGMIGRATE_SUCCESS and PGMIGRATE_FAILURE. These events will help
+in quantifying and analyzing various THP migration events including both
+success and failure cases.
